Beat Sync Maker

iOS app

Professional EDM and DJ music videos often include impressive visual effects and scene changes that fall in sync with the beat. Until now, bringing these techniques into own your productions required a computer-based editor and some serious technical skills. Roland’s Beat Sync Maker app for iOS changes all that, letting you bring a pro look to your smartphone performance videos with very little effort. Instead of relying solely on fixed angles that focus on hands over drum machines, controllers, and synths, you can now infuse your music with polished visual effects that make your videos more engaging for a wider audience.

Beat Sync Maker automatically detects the beats in your performance and adds all sorts of cool video effects that stay in perfect time with the music. Going further, you can also drop in movie clips from your device with the app’s 2-Video Mix function. Via a simple and creative process, you’re able to transform a video in minutes, save it to your device, and post it to social media. With Beat Sync Maker, it’s never been easier to bring a professional touch to your EDM and DJ performance videos.

Beat Sync Maker is a free download from the App Store, and supports the exporting of videos up to 30 seconds long. You can export longer videos by upgrading to the full version via a small in-app purchase, or by connecting a Roland GO:MIXER or GO:MIXER PRO to your device.

Highly Creative and Easy to Use

Using Beat Sync Maker is simple—just choose a movie on your device and then select one of five visual effect types while it’s playing back. That’s all you need to do! Adjust the depth of an effect with the onscreen slider to change up the look, and alternate among the different effect types to create your own variations.

Insert Movie Clips with 2-Video Mix

Beat Sync Maker’s 2-Video Mix function allows you to cut in movie clips as well, making your performance videos even more interesting and unique. There are 18 pre-installed clips to choose from, and you can also import personal movie clips stored in your device’s camera roll.

Great Music is Built on Great Sound

If you’ve ever been disappointed with the sound quality when recording music videos with your smartphone, Roland’s GO:MIXER PRO and GO:MIXER provide an easy solution. These compact and affordable audio mixers feature multiple inputs and dedicated level controls, allowing you to blend keyboards, drum machines, guitar/bass, and vocals together as you and your musical partners perform. An ultra-clean stereo mix is sent to your phone while you shoot, providing a top-quality live soundtrack for your video performance.

In addition to providing great sound for your smartphone videos, GO:MIXER PRO and GO:MIXER also unlock the full video export functionality of Beat Sync Maker without needing to make an in-app purchase.
